Chapter 474 The Beast King Died from a Fall
Jin Lin opened the door and went out.

"what happened?"

Falcon's expression darkened. "Sangze's condition is not right."

Jin Lin's eyes changed slightly as he followed Junxiao to Sangze's stone house.

Crimson Flame was already waiting inside the house.

Seeing the two enter the room, he looked at Falcon and said, "Sangze's current situation is very similar to your situation before you broke the curse. The beast soul in his body is constantly being lost, and the beast soul energy I inject is being instinctively rejected by his body."

As he spoke, his voice grew heavy, "If this continues, once his beast soul energy is completely depleted, he will..."

He didn't say the rest, but Jin Lin and the others understood.

“I’ll try using the beast soul power of the Devouring Python to see if I can stop its energy leakage. The High Priest might be able to help. One of you should go back to the palace and ask the High Priest.”

Fei Yan stood up. "I'll go. You guys stay here and take good care of Xi Xi."

Jin Lin nodded. "Be careful."

"Ah."

Falcon gathered power in his palm and tried to inject it into Sang Ze's body. At first, the beast soul energy in his body resisted, but because the Devouring Python's energy was too strong and domineering, it actually suppressed the force that rejected him, and Sang Ze's body slowly began to absorb it.

As the power was injected, Sangze's body began to slowly warm up.

Jin Lin looked at Junxiao and noticed that his face had visibly turned pale.

"Falcon, that's enough."

The falcon slowly withdrew its hand.

"Go keep Xixi company. I'll stay here tonight."

The falcon nodded, turned around, and left the stone house.

Once Jin Lin confirmed that Sang Ze was temporarily unharmed, he also left the house and stood guard on the corridor.

He looked up toward the palace, his gilded pupils filled with a deep darkness.

Tonight is destined to be anything but peaceful.

Inside the Beast King's Palace, flames soared into the sky.

The Beast King's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Yao Xi. "I... I knew it! You hadn't given up!"

Yao Xi glanced at her expressionlessly, her eyes filled with a cold, mocking gaze.

"Give up? I am the firstborn cub of the female and male. My father was once the number one warrior of Beast King City. From childhood, both my father and mother raised me as the heir to the throne. Just when I thought everything was going smoothly and I should be able to take him into my possession, you and your father appeared!"

The coldness in Yaoxi's eyes turned into boundless hatred.

"After your father killed my father, you flattered the female beast and made her treat you differently while neglecting me. If you were capable and smart enough, that would be one thing, but you're just a fool!"

The Beast King saw her approach and instinctively backed away in fright, stammering, "I, I didn't..."

"You didn't? Joey, the last pureblood of the Silverfrost White Wolf clan, was offered the position of your first beast mate, but you refused. Instead, you went to find that low-ranking green snake and were completely bewitched by him. If he were just stupid, that would be one thing, but he is also ambitious, harboring monsters and wanting to usurp the throne, and you know nothing about it!"

The Beast King stared in shock, his eyes wide. "This...this is impossible! Han Lie would never betray me!"

"So, you deserve what you have today, Yu Qing. I've let you sit in this position for so many years, that's enough."

Yao Xi suddenly looked towards the door, and in the blink of an eye, her expression changed and she rushed to the Beast King.

"Beast King, the fire has already spread inside. You must come with me now."

The Beast King's expression changed drastically, and he resisted by pushing Yaoxi away.

"Yaoxi, what do you want to do? Let me go! What do you want to do... Let me go!"

The Beast King shoved Yaoxi away violently, but he used too much force, causing her to trip on the steps behind her and fall towards the window. "No, no, Beast King!"

When Yunji and the elders entered the hall, they saw the Beast King push Yaoxi aside and fall out of the window. The beast soldiers immediately jumped out of the window to save her, but it was too late.

The Beast King crashed heavily to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.

Even until her death, her eyes remained open in despair.

"Beast King, Beast King!" Yao Xi cried as she ran downstairs, grabbing the Beast King's hand, her voice choked with sobs. She lowered her head, her shoulders trembling violently, unable to suppress the upward curve of her lips.

"High Priest, the Beast King has fallen to his death."

As soon as the beastman finished speaking, the elders' expressions changed.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Put out the fire in the palace first, then have everyone go to the main hall to wait."

"Yes, High Priest."

The fire at the palace was not completely extinguished until dawn.

A group of elders, the ten beast guards, Yunji, Yaoxi and others arrived at the royal palace hall.

The Beast King's gradually cooling corpse was placed in the middle of the hall.

The entire hall was completely silent, except for Yaoxi's occasional sobs.

"Yaoxi, what exactly happened? How could something have happened to the Beast King when he was perfectly fine?" The one who asked the question was the royal elder.

Yao Xi looked up and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I don't know either. When the palace was on fire, I was worried about the Beast King's safety, so I went to the Beast King's inner palace. But as soon as I entered, I saw Yu Ling forcing the Beast King to hand over the throne to her immediately. When the Beast King refused, she tried to attack him."

These words made the elders' faces turn ugly. The Beast King had indeed summoned them here to discuss the selection of the heir to the throne, but he had not specified who should be chosen.

“Mino also saw it at the time.”

Yunji waved his hand, and Yu Ye was brought up.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw the Beast King lying motionless on the ground. He gritted his teeth, broke free from the restraints of the beast soldiers, and rushed over.

"Her mother, her mother!"

“Yu Ye, tell me what happened at the palace back then, everything you saw.”

Yu Ye raised his head with bloodshot eyes. Last night, his mother suddenly summoned him to the inner palace, saying she had something to say, but a fire broke out in the palace as soon as he got halfway there.

When he arrived at the Queen Mother's palace, he saw the Royal Spirit holding a bone knife, forcing the Queen Mother to immediately pass the throne to him.

He was furious. Yu Ling was so stupid, why should the throne be hers? He immediately rushed into the inner palace and started arguing with Yu Ling.

During the argument, the beast tamer of the spirit master barged in, and they started fighting.

But he didn't expect that he would accidentally injure the female mother during the fight. They panicked and their first thought was to escape.

They never expected that as soon as they ran outside, they would see Yaoxi rushing towards them...

Yu Ye's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to say what had happened!
"Yu Ye, why won't you say?"

“I…I saw the spirit beast coercing the female mother; she wanted to seize the female mother’s throne! After I discovered this, her beast husband ran away with her.”

Yao Xi lowered her eyes, concealing the smile in them.

"How dare she! Send the beastmen to capture her, they must bring her back."

The Second Elder then stepped forward and said, "High Priest, now that the Beast King is dead, we should get a new Beast King to succeed to the throne as soon as possible. Otherwise, Beast King City will be leaderless, which may cause unrest."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Yunji.

Thank you so much, Tong En and Xu! Love you both!
